Jussi Jaaskelainen is said to be "unhappy" at the slow progress of contract talks at Bolton, putting Manchester City and Stoke on alert.

The veteran goalkeeper is entering the final year of his Reebok Stadium contract and is keen to extend the deal.

However, Jaaskelainen appears frustrated at the inactivity from Bolton with a source telling The People: "Jussi is unhappy. He's in the last year of his contract and nothing is happening about a new deal."

Manchester City are said to be looking for an experienced back-up goalkeeper to support Joe Hart, and could be keen on 36-year-old Jaaskelainen. City are also said to be eyeing Stoke's Thomas Sorensen.

Bolton have already sold Ali Al-Habsi to Wigan this summer, leaving 23-year-old Adam Bogdan as their only other goalkeeper.
